Manuscript Editing for The Review of Economic Studies Journal Articles
Founded in 1933 by young British and American economists, The Review of Economic Studies aims to encourage research in theoretical and applied economics, especially by young economists. The Review of Economic Studies Ltd manages it, and Oxford University Press publishes it.
Manuscripts run under 45 pages, counting the title page, tables, figures, references, and appendices, with an online appendix of up to 30 pages for supplementary material. The text is 1.5-spaced in 12-point type with margins of at least an inch. The abstract runs no more than 150 words, with keywords and JEL codes. Acknowledgments go at the end of the text. A submission fee applies, reduced for students, recent PhDs, and authors in low- and middle-income economies. Accepted papers follow the journal's data and code availability policy. Off the Grid Editing trims to the page limit and moves material to the online appendix. Submissions go through Editorial Express as a single PDF.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to The Review of Economic Studies. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.
Our editors do not have access to your manuscript until an order is placed. Your draft is secure until you decide to proceed.
Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for The Review of Economic Studies
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to The Review of Economic Studies.
The journal's submission guidelines cover length, format, and fees. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
